Isolation and properties of Aspergillus niger IBT-90 xylanase for bakery

Abstract: Xylanase of low molecular weight (K II) was isolated from the fungus Aspergillus niger IBT-90 cultivated in medium with wheat bran. K II was purified by precipitation with ammonium sulphate (20-80% saturation) and gel filtration on Biogel P-10. This enzyme is most active in hydrolysis of birchwood xylan at 50 degrees C and pH 5.5. Xylanase K II has an ability to degrade 1,4-beta-bonds and to debranch substrates. It degrades not only xylans but also cellulose, an important factor for its application in bakery. … Show more

“…12 On the other hand, xylan acts as a major ingredient of hemicellulose in nature, so there have been a surge of interest in microbial xylanase (EC 3.2.1.8), having significance in a variety of well-documented industrial applications (especially in paper and food industries). 13 The generation of clean, sustainable energy sources from renewable carbon sources (such as lignocellulosic biomass) for the substitution of fossil fuels goes worldwide interest because the process minimizes the negative environmental and social impacts as well as the lignocellulosic resources do not compete directly with food production or with land that may be needed for the food production. 7 Among these energy alternatives, hydrogen is considered as a clean, sustainable, and renewable energy carrier, not contributing to the greenhouse effect with high energy yield of 122 MJ/ Kg.…”

“…The spore suspension was passed through a 0.5 mm sieve to eliminate mycelia and media components. The spore numbers were estimated by Romanowska et al (2006). Ten percent (v/v) of spore suspension (1×10 8 spore/ml) was used as inoculum for SSF process.…”

“…The disulphide bond reducing agents DTT and β-mercaptoethanol showed also an activation of other xylanases from A. giganteus 8 , A. sydowii SBS 45 11 , A. cf. niger BCC14405 9 , and A. niger IBT-90 3 . But EDTA showed a confused effect, no change in the activity of the xylanase from A. niger IBT-90 3 and the xylanase II from A. giganteus 8 , but a decrease in the activity of the xylanase from A. sydowii SBS 45 11 and the xylanase I from A. giganteus 8 .…”

“…Endoxylanases are used for pulp industry to support the bleaching process, reducing the toxic chemicals (chlorine) used to bleach lignin contained in the paper 2 . Other important applications of xylanases are to make the bread fine and soft and extend the storage time 3 ; to purify fruit juice, wine and beer 4 ; and to form xylitol glucose used in confectionery industry. In the breeding, xylanase expedites the digestion process of food containing xylan and at the same time helps to reduce the viscosity in the digestive system followed by many positive effects such as improved food absorption, improved microorganism populations of the intestine in the advantageous direction, reduced digestion disorder, and drier excrement 5,6 .…”
